"The Huddle" makes its picks for Week 8

"The Huddle" made the trip to Richmond-Burton to preview their key divisional game against undefeated North Boone. Senior sports writer Joe Stevenson and mchenrycountysports.com's Les Johnson make their predictions for this game and three more in this week's final installment.

The Rockets (5-2 overall, 3-1 BNC East) kept their hopes alive for at least a share of the East title with a win over Burlington Central last week. But they'll need another win -- this time over North Boone (7-0 overall, 4-0 BNC East).

Huntley's chances for the FVC Valley division title took a hit on Saturday after a 41-14 loss to Cary-Grove. Now the Red Raiders (4-3 overall, 4-1 FVC Valley) look to get that important fifth win against Woodstock (3-4 overall, 2-3 FVC Fox) in an FVC crossover game. The Blue Streaks need wins this week and in Week 9 against Johnsburg to have a chance at a playoff berth.
